It is disease caused by a virus named VERICELLA ZOSTER. It is usually a painful dermatomal rash. It is also known as SHINGLES. It is basically a reactivation of the chickenpox virus in our body. After a person has had chickenpox, the virus lies dormant in certain nerves for many years so the people with chicken-pox history may likely to have this in future. It causes a painful rash that may appear as a stripe of blisters on the torso. Pain can persist even after the rash is gone. Herpes zoster is more common in people with a depressed immune system and those over the age of 50.
